A little devil has arrived at the Marquis's mansion, and all the powerful officials in the cour

Renbao huffed and puffed as he pushed Su Xuance into the inner hall.

Laifu tried to help several times, but she refused, pushing him away while saying, "I can do it! I'm very strong! Renbao, go for it!"

Lai Fu couldn't help but chuckle; the little girl was just too adorable.

The Empress eagerly awaited her audience with Renbao.

Su Xuance entered the inner hall, but after looking left and right, she couldn't see Renbao's small figure. She couldn't help but ask, "Lord Su, where is Renbao?"

"Auntie Queen, I'm here!"

Renbao peeked out from behind the wheelchair, her small eyes sparkling. She also had a small gold hairpin in her hair, which swayed back and forth with her movements.

When the Empress saw Renbao, she finally understood why she always felt something was off about Su Tang.

Renbao's eyes were clear and bright, and she took a liking to her at first sight. The Empress extended her hand and said, "Renbao."

"Father." Renbao had already taken a step forward, and then tilted his head to look at Su Xuance.

Su Xuance nodded to her, but then added worriedly, "Her Majesty the Empress has just woken up, so Renbao, please be gentle."

Renbao was full of energy, strong, and young. He was afraid that she might not know her limits and offend the Empress.

"Okay!" Renbao bounced along on her short legs, standing prettily in front of the Empress. "Auntie Empress, I'm here!"

The Empress felt both delighted and saddened, wishing she could have such a lovely and playful daughter.

She forced back her tears and smiled gently, "Renbao, would you like to be my goddaughter?"

The emperor's eyes lit up.

Why didn't he think of making Renbao a princess? That way he could see her every day.

Renbao shook his head frantically: "No way, I have no kinship with the Empress. I only have one father and one mother, I can't recognize you as my godmother."

The Empress was somewhat disappointed, but Renbao's next words shocked her.

"Auntie the Empress will have her own children." Renbao looked at the Empress's children's palace, counted them, and then raised her chubby little hand to point in the air, "One little sister and one little brother."

The Empress suddenly stood up, knelt down to meet Renbao's gaze, her voice trembling uncontrollably: "Renbao, really? I really will have my own child?"

She hasn't been able to get what she wanted all these years.

Ke Renbao is the genius of the Xuan Realm mentioned by the abbot of Daoxuan Temple.

The Empress's lifeless heart was stirred, a mix of emotions swirling within her.

"Yes, Aunt Empress's natal chart shows a full and rounded uterus, indicating she is destined to have children. However, her face was shrouded in dark energy. Now that I have removed the dark energy, her younger siblings are on their way!"

"I can't believe it," Renbao said in a childish voice.

The Empress was overjoyed and wept, choking back tears as she said, "Thank you for your kind words, Renbao. If it really comes true, I will protect you for the rest of my life."

"That won't do. When you go to the underworld, I'll have to..." Renbao turned around, his eyes full of disbelief.

Father, why are you covering my mouth?

Su Xuance chuckled awkwardly at the Empress, "Your Majesty, Renbao is young and prone to speaking without thinking."

"It's alright, Renbao is clever and mischievous, I like her very much," the Empress said with a smile.

With her worries lifted, the melancholy in her eyes dissipated, replaced by a brighter glow.

The Emperor said, "I wish to bestow upon Renbao the title of Junior Celestial Master, and announce it to the entire world. What does Minister Su think?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Su Xuance immediately expressed his gratitude, and then said, "Your Majesty, I wish to return to the Dali Temple to handle the case and continue to share your burdens."

The emperor was taken aback, his gaze falling on his legs: "But your legs?"

"Your Majesty, my leg has been healed by Renbao." Su Xuance said, standing up from his wheelchair and taking a few steps. "The reason I am still in a wheelchair is to find the culprit who harmed me. I hope Your Majesty will keep this a secret."

The emperor, his face filled with shock, nodded and incredulously approached him, examining him closely. "Renbao's medical skills are truly divine! You're saying your leg injury wasn't an accident, but rather someone harmed you?"

Su Xuance nodded.

The emperor's face darkened: "I will not let this matter rest; I will definitely stand up for you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

……

When Su Xuance appeared at the Dali Temple, the officials were all surprised and their eyes were focused on him and Renbao.

"Lord Su, it's been a long time." A figure came from behind the light, half of his face in shadow and half in light.

"Lord Zhou." The officials of the Court of Judicial Review stood up and bowed, their eyes shifting between him and Su Xuance, their expressions somewhat unnatural.

After Su Xuance fell ill with a leg ailment, his position as Minister of the Court of Judicial Review was not filled by anyone else.

However, his apprentice Zhou Lu, whom he personally trained, is now the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review and the backbone of the Court of Judicial Review.

"Master, you're back." Zhou Lu walked up to Su Xuance and bowed respectfully. When she saw Renbao beside him, she reached out to touch her head.

Renbao snuggled into Su Xuance's arms, saying, "Father, he has a greedy air about him, I don't like him!"

Zhou Lu paused, straightened up, and said in a colder tone, "It is said that Master's daughter grew up in the countryside and does not know the rules of the capital. Seeing her today, it is indeed true."

Su Xuance's face suddenly turned cold: "I think my Renbao is innocent and naive, able to distinguish good from evil at a glance. Your defenses have been breached, so I'm afraid you have something to hide."

"Guards, bring out all the case files from the Dali Temple from the past year; I wish to examine them personally."

A deathly silence.

The officials of the Court of Judicial Review looked at Zhou Lu's expression, then at Su Xuance, but none of them moved.

"Master, since you're crippled, why don't you stay home and recuperate? I heard you've left the Marquis's mansion and started your own household, which means your destiny is to stay with your wife and daughters—that's a blessing, isn't it?" Zhou Lu said sarcastically with a light laugh.

He came from a poor family and was looked down upon when he first entered the Dali Temple. It was Su Xuance who took him under his wing and helped him.

He was initially grateful, but after Su Xuance retired, he was promoted to the position of Junior Minister and truly experienced the taste of power.

Having been immersed in officialdom for a long time, one's original aspirations have long been eroded, and one allows greed, infatuation, and desire to run rampant.

Su Xuance had left the Marquis's mansion and was no longer backed by his family background. In Zhou Lu's eyes, he posed no threat whatsoever.

This is also the source of his confidence to provoke Su Xuance to his face.

"Father, is he cursing you?" Renbao sensed the malice Zhou Lu was radiating towards Su Xuance, and his fair and soft face tightened. He turned around and asked Su Xuance.

Lai Fu was already furious and blurted out, "Yes, Miss!"

The next moment, Renbao took off the gold bracelet from his wrist.

It hurts!

Zhou Lu bent over and covered his eyes. He felt something golden hurting him and hitting him right in the eye. Tears streamed down his face from the pain.

What a savage child!

Zhou Lu shouted sternly, "Guards, seize this disrespectful child!"

"I'll see who dares!" Su Xuance shouted.

Zhou Lu's left eye was swollen high, red and purple, and looked frightening at first glance, making him look extremely disheveled.

He smirked, his face contorted in a hideous rage: "Lord Su, do you still think you're my superior? Without real power, you and your daughter are at my mercy!"
